Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it. Some reckon it's a 'nuclear white floral bomb' perfect for warm climes, while others find it turns rancid or overwhelming, especially on their skin. Definitely one to test before buying a full bottle.
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Many find it utterly repulsive with its animalic oud opening, while others rave about its unique-niche status and luxury feel, comparing it favourably to much pricier scents. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so sample before you commit.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and spring pair best.
Occasions
Given its 'nuclear' strength and beastly sillage, B9 is probably a bit much for most offices, though some wear it. It's much better suited for dates and evenings out where its bold, sensual character can shine. It's a bit too rich for casual daily wear or anything sporty.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
With its strong sillage, potent oud, and intensely spicy, warm character, this isn't one for the office. It's best suited for dates or formal events where its luxurious depth and bold presence can truly shine. Casual wear is possible, but be mindful of its polarizing nature.
